U.S. Army Reserve soldiers were mobilised in Puerto Rico on Wednesday as part of large-scale military readiness activities at Fort Buchanan and other bases, amid heightened U.S. military presence in the Caribbean.

The operation, involving U.S. special forces, has sparked international debate over its legality and potential regional impact.

U.S. military activity in Puerto Rico and the wider Caribbean is continuing as part of a broader strategic posture under Operation Southern Spear, though officials have described the deployment as exercises and readiness training.
